      The Dhammapada (Pali; Prakrit: Dhamapada; Sanskrit Dharmapada) is a versified Buddhist scripture traditionally ascribed to the Buddha himself. It is one of the best-known texts from the Theravada canon. The title, Dhammapada, is a compound term composed of dhamma and pada, each word having a number of denotations and connotations. Generally, dhamma can refer to the Buddha's "doctrine" or an "eternal truth" or "righteousness" or all "phenomena"; and, at its root, pada means "foot" and thus by extension, especially in this context, means either "path" or "verse" (cf. "foot (prosody)") or both. English translations of this text's title have used various combinations of these and related words.

      • 16 uur lezen

      Compiled by an unknown author in Iceland around 1270, and based on sources dating back centuries earlier, the single main manuscript of The Elder Edda is one of the literary wonders of the medieval world and the greatest source of knowledge of Viking lore in existence. These mythological and heroic poems tell of gods and mortals from an ancient era: the giant-slaying Thor, the doomed Volsung family, the hell-ride of Brynhild and the cruelty of Alti the Hun. Eclectic, incomplete and fragmented, these verses nevertheless retain their stark beauty and their power to enthrall, opening a window on to the thoughts, beliefs and hopes of the Vikings and their world. Andy Orchard's new translation faithfully conveys the spare, unadorned style of the original metre and language. The glossed text us accompanied by four additional poems, a chronology, further reading, an index of names, a note on pronunciation, and an introduction discussing the poems in detail, the history of The Elder Edda and its influence on writers from Tennyson to Tolkien."

      A Pillow Book for Lovers

      • 48bladzijden
      • 2 uur lezen

      The world of Japanese geisha culture has long commanded worldwide interest and fascination. A document of this culture, as well as an exercise in erotic tradition, the "pillow book," was first used during Japan's Kamakura period (1192–1333). It then developed into a wider range of boudoir literature. Others became illustrated portfolios, or shunga, traditional Japanese erotic art that recalls great eighteenth-century masters such as Hokusai and Utamaro, as well as today's popular Manga comics. These pillow books were used by courtesans and geishas to aid sexual exploration, and throughout history also became a cultural guide to the world of the geisha, describing training, dress, makeup, and style, both public and private. This book brings the world of the geisha to us in glorious vibrancy through its topics of the history of the geisha tradition, the rigors of the geisha apprenticeship, the significance of the kimono, and the meticulous care of the daily routine and cosmetics; the perfection of skills of ceremony, dance, and music, and the significance of misuage—loss of virginity—and the role of the danna, or patron. Filled with the facts of formal tradition and ritual along with erotic symbolism makes Geisha Secrets a must for aficionados of classic erotica and for anyone else who wishes to preserve the rapidly vanishing world of the geisha.

      Students of Spanish literature have long been familiar with this eight-hundred-year-old epic which details the legendary exploits of the soldier-adventurer Ruy Díaz of Bivar, the Cid, "he who in happy hour was born." They have known of the Cid's part in the long contest between Christian and Moslem; of his peerless steed Babieca and of his two famous swords, Colada "the precious" and Tizón; of his wife Doña Elvira and Doña Sol, "white as the sun," who found santuary with Abbot Don Sancho in the monastery of San Pedro de Cardeña during the Cid's exile; and of the despicable Princes of Carrión, Diego and Fernando González, whose hearts were black with evil. Lesley Byrd Simpson here makes this masterpiece of Spanish literature accessible to English readers in a translation that preserves the verve, realism, and humor of the original. Mr. Simpson is the translator of Two Novels of Mexico by Mariano Azuela, Cortes: The Life of the Conqueror by Francisco López de Gómara, and The Celestina; he is the author of Many Mexicos and The Encomienda in New Spain.

      The Gesar of Ling epic is the Tibetan equivalent of The Arabian Nights, known for centuries in oral and written forms across Tibet, China, Central Asia, and the eastern Silk Route. King Gesar, the ideal warrior, embodies loyalty and trust as he conquers enemies and protects peace. His miraculous life story serves as an inspiration and spiritual example for the people of Tibet and Central Asia today, with his warrior mask prominently displayed in towns and homes. As a Buddhist teaching story, Gesar's narrative symbolizes the struggle against emotional and psychological challenges like greed and aggression, representing the untamed mind. Genuine warriors, as portrayed in the epic, subjugate negative emotions to prioritize the well-being of others. This work encompasses volumes one through three, detailing Gesar's birth, mischievous childhood, youth in exile, and rivalry with his treacherous uncle. The epic narrates how the enlightened warrior defends Tibet and Buddhism against demon kings through a series of adventures, aided by heroes and magical characters from Tibetan Buddhism and native traditions. Gesar exemplifies the Silk Route ideal of a king, merging the roles of warrior and magician, and his story reflects an enlightened society where meditation, magic, and communal wisdom create a harmonious lifestyle. Filled with magic and adventure, these tales continue to captivate audiences of all ages, with the epic still sung by

First introduced into the West in 1704, the stories of The Thousand and One Nights are most familiar to American readers in sanitized children's versions. This modern edition, based on Richard F.

      And therefore take good heed unto time, how that thou dispendest it: for nothing is more precious than time. In one little time, as little as it is, may heaven be won and lost. A token it is that time is precious: for God, that is given of time, giveth never two times together, but each one after other. And this He doth, for He will not reverse the order or the ordinal course in the cause of His creation. For time is made for man, and not man for time.

      The KJV Apocrypha in a single volume. The Apocrypha ('hidden things') are contemporaneous with the Old Testament, but were not officially accepted as part of the Bible when the Hebrew 'canon' was set. They did, however, form part of the Greek Scriptures and came into English Bibles by that route. The writings of the Apocrypha run the whole gamut of literary genres: histories, romances, devotional works, proverbs and sermons. Many complement parts of the Old Testament and readers will recognise some familiar Biblical characters in the narratives, such as Daniel and Esther.

      When it comes to Bible translations, readability and reliability are what count; and on both counts, the original JERUSALEM BIBLE stands alone. One of the main contributors and lexicographers for this Bible was J. R. R. Tolkien, being consulted for the style, and also criticizing contributions of others. THE JERUSALEM BIBLE (published in 1966) was the first truly modern Bible for Catholics. Using definitive original language texts such as the Dead Sea Scrolls, biblical scholars of L'École Biblique in Jerusalem produced a meticulously accurate, wonderfully readable French translation of the complete canon of Scripture (La Bible de Jérusalem). From this French original came the English edition, edited by renowned Bible scholar Alexander Jones.For all the people around the world who are discovering or revisiting the mysteries contained in the Scriptures, only a clear, understandable Bible translation will do. With language as exquisite but more modern than the King James Version, THE JERUSALEM BIBLE is the one they can trust.

    • "In 1884 there appeared in Russia a slim volume containing four short tales. They told of a pilgrim, a lone wanderer, led by his quiet curiosity and a deep spiritual longing to undertake a lifelong journey across the land. A folk hero, a figure familiar from the works of Tolstoy and Leskov, this gentle pilgrim and his simple story would soon travel the world - and would even, much later, traverse the pages of JD Salinger's Franny and Zooey as the 'small pea-green cloth-bound book' that Franny keeps close in her handbag. The pilgrim's ancient journey takes him from a city monastery through forests, fields and the steppes of Siberia. He walks by day and by night, through rains and summer months, finding food and shelter where he can. Along the way, he encounters priests and professors, convicts, nuns and beggars, a tipsy old man in a soldier's greatcoat, from whom he slowly gathers great stores of wisdom and experience. But at the heart of his journey is his time spent praying as he journeys on alone, discovering the peace and consolation that come of constant prayer and silent contemplation. Simple and sincere, The Way of a Pilgrim paints an enduring picture of a life of detachment through wandering and prayer. And, as the pilgrim makes his way through the wilds, he invites us to travel with him, along an ancient path into an immense, mystical landscape."-- Amazon.com

A timeless tale of morality, tragedy and pure adventure, The Epic of Gilgamesh is a landmark literary exploration of man's search for immortality.

      De oudste versie van Lazarillo van Tormes die bewaard is gebleven dateert van 1554, het jaar waarin maar liefst drie uitgaven van het boek verschenen. Over de auteur bestaat grote onzekerheid, omdat het werk meestal anoniem is uitgegeven. Het boek vertelt realistisch en humoristisch het levensverhaal van de jonge Lázaro, die achtereenvolgens in dienst treedt van een blinde bedelaar, een gierige priester, een edelknaap en nog enkele andere meesters. Lazarillo is een echte pícaro, een schelm uit de zelfkant van de samenleving (maar met een goed hart), die ironisch, soms zelfs cynisch, vertelt van zijn droevige lot, waarbij niet zelden de clerus het moet ontgelden. Het werkje werd dan ook in 1559 op de index geplaatst en in 1579 opnieuw, maar nu 'gezuiverd', uitgegeven. Lazarillo van Tormes was tijdenlang net zo beroemd als de Spaanse klassiekers Don Quichot en La Celestina. Bredero ontleende aan het boek de twee hoofdfiguren van zijn Spaansche Brabander: Joncker Jerolimo Rodrigo en zijn knecht Robbeknol.

      Datant de la seconde moitié du 1er millénaire avant J.-C. et attribué au roi Salomon, le Cantique des Cantiques est l’une des œuvres majeures de la poésie hébraïque. Oscillant entre drame et ouvrage lyrique, ce texte a suscité de nombreuses interprétations. Pour les uns symbole de la symbiose entre Jésus et le genre humain, pour les autres chant d’amour d’un érotisme absolu, c’est avant tout un poème d’une fulgurance magnifique.
